    That’s true, but in higher education generally there’s a higher proportion of female students, so even with non law applicants the same probably applies https://www.hesa.ac.uk/news/25-01-2022/sb262-higher-education-student-statistics/numbers

    D&I and Representation

    This is probably due to the ratio of applicants, not firms specifically targeting female candidates. Couldn't find more up to date info but in 2021 UCAS found that 69% of law applicants were female compared to 31% male in the UK. This is for university applications but assuming a lot of law...
